Can I make the Smalltown Boy AI dance with my cats or dogs?
Updated:
Short answer
Yes. Upload one sharp, front-facing photo of each pet, one as the Lead and one as the Partner. They keep their species and dance upright on their hind legs. Two cats is the classic AI version, but dogs and mixed pairs work too. Run the free 5-second preview first.
Pet photos that work
- Big, sharp face: the pet fills at least a third of the frame.
- Looking at the lens: a pet sitting up beats a curled-up nap.
- One animal per photo: two cats in one box confuse the model.
- Two different pets: different colours make them easier to tell apart.
What your pets do
The Lead rushes the lens and wails, the Partner dances behind, they swap, dance side by side and lunge at the camera. The wails come from the pets themselves: a cat yowls, a dog howls. The cat page and the dog page have photo tips.
Pet and person
A pet and a person can be a pair too. Put either one in the Lead box. When a person appears in the video, use only photos of adults who agreed. The photo guide lists the file limits.
Questions people ask
Which pets work best?
Cats and dogs with a clear face turned to the camera. Birds, fish and small animals far from the lens are harder for the model to read.
Do I need two pets?
You need two photos. They can be two pets, a pet and a person, or two people.
Will my pets really dance?
The model invents the movement, so the result looks more like a cartoon than a documentary. It changes with every photo.
